Physics is the study of how the Universe works. When you choose to study A-level physics you will study everything from tiny subatomic particles quarks and leptons which are the smallest fundamental building blocks of nature, to the origins and evolution of our vast and wondrous Universe, and everything in between. Physics is the study of the natural laws that govern the way everything around us works, and students who study it will gain an insight into the deep relationship between maths, science, and the world around us. The knowledge you gain about the laws of nature, the practical skills you will develop over the course, and the problem-solving skills are in demand for progression to University, apprenticeships, and employment. Topics Studied: - Mechanics - Electricity - Waves - Quantum Mechanics - Thermal Physics - Oscillations - Astrophysics and Cosmology - Gravitational and Electromagnetic Fields - Nuclear and Particle Physics - Medical and Radiation Physics
Grade 66 in Combined Science or Grade 6 in Physics (Separate Science) and Grade 6 in Maths.
Paper 1 – Modelling Physics 100 marks – 2hrs 15 mins Paper 2 – Exploring Physics 100 marks – 2hrs 15 mins Paper 3 – Unified Physics 70 marks – 1hr 30 mins Practical Endorsement: 12 Assessed practicals. The skills you develop are tested in exams
